It is passed the new tab page's item item (totab) and a pointer mode (PointerMode) that indicates where the focus should be placed. If returns 0, if the tab change is a success and non-zero of the navigation failed.

This function activates the new page and moves the focus to that page's tab and applies the focus as determined by PointerMode.
